"Full dress" is the most formal kind of dress in a Regency Lady's wardrobe. Full dress is to be worn for the most formal occasions--evening concerts and card parties, soirees, balls, and court occasions. Full dress would be worn with extravagant jewelry and elaborate headdresses. Typically such dresses have a train and a low-cut bodice. | |||
